Yeah so we cut out the pacifier because we didn’t want it to be a sleep association but we may reintroduce for middle of the night sans-mommy wakings. I have the same issue with very few things working to soothe my LO- well actually swaddled on a yoga ball with white noise is usually 100% foolproof but I’m over it (plus he can’t be swaddled since 3.5 months). I’ve counted to one hundred so many times while I bounce in a room in the dark...don’t want to do that anymore. I had originally tried to follow attachment parenting, la Leche league sweet sleep cosleeping etc...and they believe that babies should nurse whenever they want and unfortunately this has turned into every 45 minutes at night for my son
